BEST WEDDING LOCATIONS IN MAINE
Coastal Maine
The coast of Maine has some of the most beautiful landscapes in all of the world. Between the cliffs and beaches carved out in unique shapes that border mountain ranges to the quaint and cozy small fishing towns, there is something to offer for every coastal theme you are looking for.
Maine’s coastline when you count all its islands is longer than California’s. And with so much space it can be overwhelming to think about which spot might be the best for you to get married at. Which is why I’ve highlighted some of the best Maine coastline locations to consider when looking for a venue.

COUNTRYSIDE WEDDINGS
As a great alternative option to Maine’s coastline, the countryside has many rustic and versatile barn venues. These are often very flexible on the aesthetic you are aiming for. I’ve been to barn weddings with themes ranging from Boho Chick, to Vintage Romance to very theme specific like The Lord of the Rings. I believe a barn wedding can provide you with the most options for stylistic choices. Which is why I’ve highlighted some of the best Maine Barn locations to consider when looking for a venue.
Fryeburg, ME
Popular venues: Hardy Farm, Barton Family Farm
Buxton, ME
Popular venues: Flanagan Farm, Arabella Estate
Parsonsfield, ME

LAKESIDE WEDDINGS
There is one more type of landscape in Maine that I would consider if I was looking for a wedding venue today and that would be one of Maine’s lakeside venues. Being lakeside is likely to be slightly less breezy than being out on the coast, but you still get the water views. And many of the lakeside venues have rustic cabin themes that are timeless to photograph. Which is why I’ve highlighted some of the best Maine Lakeside locations to consider when looking for a venue.
Sebago Lake, ME
Popular venues: Autumn Lane Estate, The Stone Barn At Sebago Lake
Highland Lake, ME

MY APPROACH
Whether you are planning your wedding along Maine’s coastline, countryside or lakeside I can help bring the vision you have for your wedding photos to life. What means most to you, means most to me. I will be here to capture every special moment, big or small with care, creativity and authenticity.
It all starts with communication, from the moment you inquire with me about your big day we start things off with a video call to get to know each other and so I can learn about all your exciting plans. And then once we begin working together, I’m here by your side with anything you need. I can provide vendor recommendations if you are still looking for additional services as well as help with the planning side like finishing up the timeline for the big day.
And we can’t forget about the engagement session! This is something I strongly recommend we do together. I include this session with all my wedding packages as I believe it’s a great way to get familiar with one another as well as capture some incredible photos for you to use for ‘save the dates’ and ‘invitations’.
Now when it comes to the wedding day, I approach it with the utmost attention, creativity and care. This is a once in a lifetime event and I treat it as such. My goal going into your wedding is to capture each moment in a way that feels timeless, real and beautiful. Whether it’s the moment your grandmother walks in to see you putting your dress on or that quick look between your father and you before you begin walking down the aisle, I’ll be there and ready for it. I’ve photographed over a hundred weddings and each one has prepared me even more for your big day.
FAQ’s
How far in advance should we book a Maine wedding photographer?
Wedding photographers book up fast in New England. The best chance you have to lock in the photographer you are interested in is reaching out as early as a year and a half to 2 years out. Especially if you are looking to have your wedding in the Fall as that is an extremely popular time for weddings in New England.
Do you travel across Maine?
I will travel anywhere for your big day! And the best part about my packages is they include all travel fees so you don’t have to worry about any additional add ons.
Do you photograph elopements in Maine?
If you are looking to elope in Maine, I would love to be a part of that with you! I offer separate packages for these, so if you are interested in something like this please let me know.
What seasons do you recommend for Maine weddings?
The best seasons to get married around in Maine are between May - October. Depending on what kind of lighting and what you would like the vegetation to look like should play a big role in your decision. For example a mid summer July wedding can look rich with greenery and crisp with that bright summer sun, whereas an October wedding could look colorful and rustic with its foliage and often very golden around sunset if you get clearer skies.
